sorry i have not been around much this year but after a bad start i had some help from bereivment councilors and finally gave myself permission to let go and move on. My journey back started at the end of May when i decided to travel up to Loch Lommond in Scotland and leave my dear husbands ashes on its banks under a large oak tree on the Buchanan estate. My husbands ancestors were Buchanans and so as he is the last of his line it felt right to return him home.

I pray the Lord will be ever close to you as you face each day. He is our great healer of hurting hearts. May he fill yours with love overflowing and wonderful memories of your love. Love lives on forever in your heart and never forgotten. God bless you now. lv Aris

I am so glad to hear from you. and even joyful to know you came around to ok. I understand loss, from a young age. My term is hangin in there. Sometimes by just a claw. I will look for you on fb.

Glad you could stop by for a while we were wondering what you have up to. So sorry about you little friend life can be cruel sometimes, nice you can now travel with Ben I'm sure he will keep you on your toes. Keep in touch when you can we all love to hear about your adventures. Marian

Arrrr, I feel for you, Life is hard, Very hard at times. pull every happiness and bit of love you can from all around.
Hugs Pam.

I am so sorry for your loss. I did not go through death but I did go through divorce and both are very traumatic. I will say this, as it has helped me mentally and physically. That the best thing is to get involved in a exercise program. It will make you feel better about your self. My doctors suggested this 30 yrs ago when I was first diagnosed with fibromyalgia and it has been my life saver. I have done it all and now settle for a senior program , but my favorite has always been pilates. Kay

Ann, my heart breaks for all your loses. But glad you are beginning to move on & praying you will feel better each day. Hug that little doggie (we had that same mix for yrs & they are adorable) & he will listen without telling you HIS opinion! Hugs from another cutie.

Oh Annie ,so sorry for all your troubles but i guess it is water we will all half to swim through sooner or latter .I am glad that time heals ,thinking of you Carolyn xxoo

you are in my prayers Annie & I am happy that you have some peace. May you continue on this path & know that you are thought of often ~hugging you cyber style~

thank you for letting us know how you are, have thought of you so often, thank god for your little guy, sometimes it makes all the difference to be loved and love, little fur children in my case is what makes it a good day. its a big job for such little kids, hugs

So lovely to see you back on here Annie. I am so sorry to read of all your sadness but glad that you have another little fur-baby to look after. He sounds as though he has you wrapped around his little finger already and I know what you mean about taking up space on your bed!!! Thank God for our children and good friends - and you are right time is a great healer, but we have our wonderful memories to bring back and remember. Life is for the living and you are certainly doing that. Love and blessings Chris xxx

Thank you for checking in with us. We have missed you!
You have had quite a journey and I am glad you now have Ben to help you continue on this journey. I am sorry about your pain and sadness. I am happy you are finding the strength you have deep inside you -- to laugh, love and live!
Hugs and prayers for you. Please come check in with us often.

What a beautiful thing you have done in taking Stan back to his roots. I'm glad to hear that you are healing. You must have been devastated loosing your little doggie, but I'm glad that your loved ones saw your need and filled it with Ben. That breed (at least the Jack Russel part) will require you to get out and move. :) It's good to see you back here. I really miss your sense of humor.

i have had to learn to laugh again but my little toy boy is such a comic that i could not help but laugh at what he does to torment me. IE he sneaks into the shower room when i am in there and runs off with the plastic net wash thingy as he hates me going under the water and keeps shouting at me when he peeps around the door to make sure i am ok.

I like your picture on your fb page. And your sunset at Shell Beach.

hope you enjoy reading about my journey to Scotland and Sky and what happened on route. its a journey that i will be doing again next year, i started out so unsure of what i was doing but returned home a month later with just so much more confidence in myself.

Ann, having been in the same situation 26 yrs ago I can truly say I know what you have been going through. I was working back then ,had 4 daughters always somewhere near and that helped me to move on. Am glad to hear you have another fur baby that is a good friend and companion. God Bless /Lillian

thank you. at the momment i am just enjoying the freedom to do what i want when i want and have no need to look at the clock

I quit saying "fine" and said "better," as I felt that was closer to honest. My sister said, say fine, that's what they want to hear. I say that means "they" don't care all that much. Lost my Charles in 2000 and happily remarried, but remember him often and miss him sometimes. Bless you in your healing process.

yep i am getting better and the healing has started at last. apparently i did all the right things after my Husband died but did them a bit too fast so had to back up a bit.

Oh Ann. I know exactly the feelings you are dealing with and all the words I can muster up are not changing anything. Just know that life still has a lot of enjoyments and your adventurous spirit helps . Glad you have another companion. Something to love, care of and talk to. Hugs

poor little dog gets talked to sleep, but he has now learnt to chat back so it sounds so very funny in my home at times.

So good to hear from you and your journey. I hope you feel less exhausted and insecure now. I am so glad you now have Ben after your loss of Bambi.
I wish you all the best, enjoy the events you planned with the folk group.
Best wishes, Martine
